Watched The Omen Trilogy last night on Film4. I'd seen the first one loads of times but never bothered with the sequels. I was pleasantly suprised! Omen 2 was the weakest of the lot and, though it can't beat the original, The Final Conflict was enjoyable. Sam Neill as a fully self-aware Antichrist was very cool - pure evil in a business suit! Watch them back-to-back and the entire life of the Antichrist is played out in all its awesome glory! I was quite shocked when I realised I had hardly moved from the sofa in over 6 hours, mind...
